+# Who
+
+I am [Boog900](https://github.com/Boog900), you can see my last CCS [here](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/469).
+
+# What
+
+I will work for 3 months on Cuprate with an initial focus on releasing an alpha `cuprated`, the basic roadmap can be seen here: https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/376.
+I plan to work on what I think is best to advance the project.
+
+I am also asking for payment for the hours I worked in January. We had some discussions about changing the way we
+get funded, potentially making a combined "cuprate CCS", however we decided against it, this lead to the delay of this CCS. 
+A list of things I did during January:
+
+- finished the init PR: https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/pull/344
+- worked on improving our consensus API: https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/pull/366, to prepare for fast-sync.
+- Started working on [issue 174](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/174): https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/pull/382
+- Investigated why monerod was syncing the first 100,000 blocks faster than cuprated, which lead to this PR: https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/pull/377
+- Started working on changing monero-oxide's tx type to use compressed points: https://github.com/Cuprate/serai/tree/monero-comp-points
+- Started working on fast-sync: https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/fast-sync
+
+All the tasks that have been started are pretty much ready just need to be cleaned up, they are all used in the fast-sync branch
+which a few people have tested syncs on, the quickest sync _so far_ was just over 4 hours.
+
+# Funding 
+
+I am asking for 40 XMR for my work in January.
+
+$55/hr for 480 hrs at $220/XMR: 120 XMR
+
+total: 160 XMR
